Happy Friday my fellow Boundlings!

Today I logged into steam and saw a cool game that came out 8/12 called "Author Sim" and its basically a game where you can do just as the title says! I do not think i will play that particular game, however; I have found some fun games from PB comments and was hoping some of you may leave your favorite bookish game recommendations below! I have 100% my recent game plays (Cat Mail Co. , Cat Isle, and Leafy Corner (well almost)) but I am hoping to add some new games to my wishlist/library and what is more fun than playing bookish games while listening to an audio book? I love sim games so if you have any recommendations that aren't the popular ones all over the Steam homepage I won't be upset to see those recommendations too!

Hello, fellow Pagebounders! I've been in the mood for this type of book for a bit now but wasn't sure how to look for them. Do any of you have any recs for MLM enemies to lovers books? Big bonus points if they're romantasy, but it's not a necessity. Not rivals to lovers, but honest and good enemies to lovers (I know they're sometimes used interchangably in tags haha). Big thanks in advance to anyone who shares! <3

For my first post on Pagebound, I thought I'd ask about one of the most important parts of reading: the actual process of choosing what to read in the first place! So I ask: when you're deciding on something, what information do you look for before picking it up? Are you someone who can go in blindly without even reading the synopsis? Or do you spend some time checking out the reviews, the author and their other works, similarities between past books you've read, etc.? I'm interested to see where other people land on this!

I've finally committed to creating and organizing some shelves for my profile and I'm wondering how y'alls shelves are organized! Any suggestions welcome! Also if you're just excited about your shelves and would like to share I'd love to hear it!

You knowwww like... I have a secretly crush on someone. He likes to read books too but is kinda different than I used to read. He reads a kind of philosophy book and science. So in the end I try to read them too 😭😭😭

Okay, personally those genres are not bad at all and I actually like it. Second, I talked to him and he was surprised (and excited) that I read those genres. So we spent lunch time together and talk about it todaayy aaaa. But he has no idea that I have a crush on him.

kinda nervous hihi 😆

Hello everybody! Does anyone have any library books they’re currently reading, have borrowed or is in line for?? I just came home from the library where I borrowed Good girl, bad blood and placed an order on Gideon the ninth and bury our bones in the midnight soul. I’m super excited for both! BOUBITMS will come quickly, as there wasn’t any list on that one, but unfortunately Gideon the ninth has quite a long list and won’t be able available before at least a month… 🤧 but good thing I have so much else to read!

Happy reading and I hope yall don’t run out of renewals 🎉

I went to read discussions of one of my favorite series (Rook & Rose by M. A. Carrick, highly recommend!!), only to realize I actually don’t know how anybody’s name or title or locations are written because I listened to this series as an audiobook 💀

These books have stellar narration, so I wouldn’t change anything, but it got me thinking of how many times this has happened after listening to an amazing audiobook—too many times, to be clear 😭

Does anyone have any funny misheard names of words from audiobooks? I can’t be the only one! Or I hope so? 😂😂
